Surf Life Saving

It was a nice, warm day on the 9th of December 2013, perfect weather for surf life saving. At our school, the year 4's and 5's walked to North Wai to learn about surf life saving and how to surf. We had to wear wetsuits with our togs underneath. Some people didn't have wetsuits so we borrowed some of the club's wetsuits.

We got separated into 2 groups, one of the groups learnt about beach safety, while the other group learnt how to surf with with Clare, Darnielle, Michael, Mark, Nick, and Nick. My group surfed first. It was really fun. But the surf boards were heavy. 

When we swapped over, a guy called Cameron taught us about the beach. Then we had a sandcastle competition. There was first, second and third place, me, Jessica's and Verity's sandcastle came third. 

Thanks to all the people who helped out with the surfing, I had an amazing day
